Lord, Thy Person Far Transcendeth

  1. Ephesians 4:10, John 8:58Lord, Thy person far transcendeth

    John 8:58, John 1:1-3Creature mind to comprehend;

    Revelation 5:8-14, John 3:16Theme of praise that ne'er shall end.

  2. John 3:35, John 14:31Here the Son, Thy Father loving,

    Hebrews 10:7-9, John 8:29Thou didst in His will delight;

    Luke 3:22, 2 Peter 1:17Of His heart the Well-belovèd,

    Luke 3:22, John 8:29O how pleasing in His sight!

  3. Ephesians 1:3,4,11, John 10:30One in all eternal counsels,

    Ephesians 1:9, John 1:18Thoughts divine Thou hast made known,

    John 17:20-23, Romans 8:29That there should be men made like Thee -

    John 17:20-23, John 20:17Those whom Thou canst call Thine own.

  4. 2 Corinthians 13:14, 1 Corinthians 10:16Thus in holy, blest communion,

    Ephesians 3:18,19, 1 Corinthians 6:17Known in bonds so full and deep,

    John 17:11, Philippians 4:5Drawn together, Lord, so near Thee

    John 17:11, Philippians 4:7Thou our hearts in love dost keep.

  5. Ephesians 1:6, Romans 5:2And, rejoicing in such favour,

    1 Peter 1:6, Psalms 150:1-6Praise to Thee we gladly bring;

    Ephesians 5:18,19, Ephesians 3:16By the Spirit's power sustaièd,

    Revelation 5:9, Ephesians 5:19Of Thy glory now we sing.
